I just love how this game begins.
Its like if Advance Wars was based on WW2.

I defended berlin.

Another thing that irritated me, just because I'm a stickler for accuracy, is the HQ people. They had Eisenhower and Smith as the Allied leaders in the first 2 scenarios, when the US wasn't even in the war yet. I can't remember if they were in the Russian scenarios, but that would have been wrong too.
And for the Germans, scenarios 3 to 5 should have had Kurt Zeitzler, not Halder, as army chief of staff. In 6 it should have been Guderian.
But it was still a fun game.

@summer20105707 (cont.) So I got to where I could win over 90% of battles. I won France as the French and won "Berlin" (Oder river) as the Germans. But I lost patience waiting for the Berlin scenario to end so never saw the ending though I had destroyed virtually all the Russian forces. Always wondered if it says Hitler shoots himself.
So some realistic tactics with infantry was possible. They were pretty good at taking damage but couldn't inflict any. That was the main inaccuracy.

@summer20105707 Fortunately, you could almost always rely on the AI to attack you, even if you were really the one who started the battle. So I would place infantry and immobile units in a good defense line, then wait for the AI to come up and flank them with tanks & mech. units. Sometimes I would reverse it and flank with infantry because the AI would usually turn to fight the flanking unit. So the tank unit it was fighting 1st would then be hitting the side or rear. That often worked better.

@RWT683 Infantry had their uses though. Large numbers of infantry could destroy mechanized units. They could knock out artillery. They could also cross rivers when no bridge is available. They could easily go behind enemy lines and were useful in attacking enemy infantry. It all depended on how you used them. Not to mention that they could move through buildings. I used them to trap enemies by destroying bridges.

The thing that made this game screwed up is that infantry were basically cannon fodder, while tanks were all-powerful. The reality is tanks should have been massacred in city or woods terrain. I still loved playing it though.

Some of the best battle music on the snes! I played this game just to listen to It a couple times..
This game took forever to complete. The only scenario I couldn´t finish was the Battle of the Bulge, on the Allied side... the Germans have too many tanks!! It´s much easier with the Russians!

yea, that scenario is due to beat, best to destroy the bridges so the germans won't cross and you can try to plant landmines in the area the bridges are destroyed at. You can check the Walkthrough in GameFAQs website.

cool, me too. I like the gameplay, reminds me of advanced wars on the gba and ds. I like D-Day mission on this game, so hard but fun to play. I like the way they show war stuff like tanks, troops, etc.
